Show up and learn about Sudo Room! Make friends. Have fun.
I'll be hosting. We encourage other collectives to host similar events for
the community (and each other) to learn about us.
Good folks seek referral...

Subject: needing someone to phone line/router connection
Raines and I share meeting space as members of the Long Haul Infoshop
collective on Shattuck Ave. The collective needs someone to put in a new
phone/DSL line from the outside phone box. It's currently in a very messy
arrangement that was once a building wide multi-line system no longer in
use or needed. The result is slow and intermittent internet and wireless
There's a couple of phones, and jacks as far as I know.
Can you recommend someone with professional experience and equipment,
and/or do you know what the going rates are for this?
Thanks!

Subject: [omnilogistics] URGENT WORK PARTY TONIGHT, 6PM FOR
BALLROOM/BASEMENT OPENING TO PUBLIC!
To: omnilogistics(a)lists.riseup.net
Hello Omni Fam,
Tonight at 6PM we will be having a work party to take care of some tasks
that need to get done for the ballroom/basement to be legal/up to fire
code/ready for SEPT. 6th! It is a considerable list, but totally do-able,
especially if we have some helping hands! Below is a list of tasks to give
you a sense of things. we will be going over tasks/drywall repair as a
group to educate folks who may not know certain skills. it should be fun
(lets make it fun!)!!
If you have it, please bring crowbars/prybars/flatbars.
Thanks, and please respond if you think you can make it tonight!
Peace,
Brel
briefly, here is a list of tasks that need to get done for the ballroom to
be legal/up to fire code/ready for folks on sept. 6th:
*Full breakdown of ballroom tasks*:
- Repair biggest hole in ballroom with drywall: the wall section on the
mezzanine needs to be replaced, i already virtually completed the demo, now
the drywall needs to be installed, first layer of joint compound/tape
applied, then let dry and apply 2nd layer, then 3rd layer, then primed then
painted. we need to still BUY the paint and have the color match the black
color.
-repair/patch various drywall holes/damage in the backstage area
-someone needs to take pictures of the rest of the "fallen angels" around
the ballroom (before painting over them)
-paint adjacent walls to the wall that is being replaced (i.e. there are 4
sections that make up that mezzanine wall, 1 of them is being replaced, and
we should paint all of them, as per the proposal i sent out via
omnilogistics)
-purchase and install "EXIT" signs for 3 exits. Must tie into electrical
and I think be battery operated (Ormund, can you assist here? Are you a
licensed electrician btw - just curious?)
- Purchase and install the correct # of fire extinguishers -- every 75'
around the room
- Install panic bars on main doors from ballroom to Shattuck (both sets of
double doors); remove sliding bolts.
- Rent at least a 19' scissor lift
- once we get approval from the delegates Thursday, remove all ceiling
tiles in ballroom * (requires scissor lift)
*Not related to ballroom 'fire life & safety' codes per se, but should do*:
- Repair external siding (to ballroom, on south side) that is about to fall
off, that is visible from the mezzanine wall described above (this is most
likely the reason why that wall got damaged in the first place: water
damage/exposure to the outside)*
- Perhaps: remove odd piece of plywood board (suspended from trusses in
front of stage) with 4x4 long pieces of wood attached to it. we should
dissassemble it while we are up there. not sure what purpose it serves, but
Cep thinks we should get rid of it because it is currently stuck in a way
that we can't use it/move it to a usable place. it at one time may have
been a platform to do lighting stuff from the ceiling beams.
*In basement (also relates directly to ballroom fire life & safety, pointed
out by inspector)*:
-replace basement a few missing ceiling tiles; We can use the ballroom
ceiling panelling for this, won't look beautiful/will be black unless we
paint it, but will be functional.
- lay up drywall in large ceiling hole under bathroom, put ceiling tiles on
it: probably with double-sheets sheets of 5/8" (firewall)
* = tasks that require a SCISSOR LIFT
Submitted for review.
Notes:
1. SudoMesh asked for 30A service for the servers. I opted to install 20A
rated outlets next to 15A outlets in 4plex boxes at plug locations A & B on
two 20A breakers instead because the outlets will be "conventionally"
shaped. If in fact, a 30A breaker is required then the outlets will be
rated accordingly and will look more like a plug for a dryer.
2. Overhead electrical: There is an additional cost of about $250 plus
labor to get this done in Phase two. I am personally not convinced of the
merits of having overhead power when wall outlets are in such immediate
proximity (max 15ft).
3. I would like these plans to be reviewed this week to be fully prepared
for installation early next week.
4. Last weekend, Hol and I went to Home Depot to get supplies for Phase 1.
I request reimbursement of $348.02 for materials. I have the receipt and
will present to whomever would like a copy.
That is all.

Sshhhhh. :)

Hi, sudo
Earlier today I was trying to use the drill press to create a hobbed bolt for
Noisebridge's prusa. In the process, I broke a 5" cast-iron C-clamp that was
holding the vice to the table and I also could not locate the chuck key.
I am ordering a replacement 6" steel C-clamp, a universal chuck key, and an
assortment of heat shrink tubing from McMaster later this week. They should be
available at Sudo room by Monday at the latest, maybe earlier if they deliver
on Saturday. Same day shipping FTW!
If there are other things that are needed in the machine shop, please let me
know and I'll throw it in with my order.
